Principles of Operation: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Mariner and 2010 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Replacement of the Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) transceiver does not require the PATS
keys to be programmed into the Instrument Cluster (IC) again.
NOTE:
Make sure any aftermarket remote start systems have been removed from vehicle before any PATS
- related no-start concerns are investigated.
NOTE:
A minimum of 2 PATS
keys must be programmed into the IC
before the vehicle will start.
NOTE:
The Smart Junction Box (SJB) is also known as the Generic Electronic Module (GEM).
